Best Riding On Poems

Two riding on a single
Man! How fast that bike will go
Down the hill around the curve
Blow wind blow

At the very bottom piled up
In a culvert drain
In great agony and pain
Totally distained

Crumpled metal, torn clothes
Bleeding and blood stains
Harsh words from parents
Tears as soap and water cleaned

All...

It is on this day
Into his elegant horizons
Where cirrus clouds are sprayed from sunrises and sunsets
Attuned within throat of violins

An example of his concave humanity
Preaching fond memories in baritone clefs
An embrace of admirations’ core within exhaled stanzas
Forcing trembled knees to stand against robe of Death

His...

Donkey’s in the land of Israel in the 1st century, 
Were used to carry goods about the country, 
But could also carry women, children and the ill, 
Because they were strong and quiet, did chill. 

So when Jesus entered Jerusalem on that day,
On the Sunday...

The universe revolves around patterns and numbers.
Like an insomniac knowing not the meaning of the word slumber.
To say it's a big place would be a gross understatement.
If it were a face we'd be living on a farthing of a freckle,
a speck within a speck, in...

Lyrics sung by Johnny Cash in "The Long Black Train"

"I said cling to the Father and his Holy name,
And don't go ridin' on that long black train."


there's a conductor

waiting to take your ticket

for a pleasure ride. . .

RIDING ON

Destination Dallas
home of the cowboys
land of the brave
intentional target
aimed with precision
at new paths to pave

gravitational phase
surrealistic
skyward wave

spurred on to
something new
beneath God’s
sun and moon

eyes turn inward
anchors pull out
onwards toward
landfalls legends
devoid of doubt

brevity flawed
weak kneed but
hardened jaw
riding on….

Sometimes a normal life can become epic,
But this thing called fate has a bag full of tricks.

Every day in my village, out of the window,
I saw the face of a graceful belle who had the sun’s glow.

I wanted to confess my love for her but...

Once there was a farmer
Who rode to the pub on a llama
He said "In Peru 
It's the thing to do
Isn't she a charmer?"...

Skiing down the slope at twilight  
Riding 'pon fear and hope
To avoid the avalanche's spill
Aurora's colors scope

Twilight's green flashes etched across
Night's dark sky in suspense
Loose white, soft, fluffy snow powder
Fear_muscles tense, sounds sense

A twilight adventure exposed
This evening's soft aura
Once in a lifetime adventure
Avalanche and...

Riding on the Wind

I share with you a memory of an autumn afternoon;
unloading weekends shopping; such a normal task to do.

Then something moving on my left and this is what I saw;
a whirlwind holding steady, just less than six feet tall.

A spectacle of dust and...

(A poem dedicated to Khadiza Merry)

They all heard that, 
Jesus is riding on a bus, these days. 
Vinay from the remotest eastern village was an eye-witness 
He just acknowledged today, in confirmation. 
 
I was counting those quarters. One by one. 
The unpaid dues for...

Remember Funom Makama,
Who went riding on a llama,
And viewed,
Family feud;
Fell off then had a trauma.

When Jesus first came, he came riding on a donkey
Crowds of people standing, cheering him all around
Before they were done 
they were condemning him to death
But when he died he didn’t remain there
He rose from the dead and defeated death and...

Hope and dreams both reside in me
One has patience while the latter grows wings
Hope is that feeling that sees me through
Dreams are cherished ideas in different hues! 
Does hope intermingle in dreams among beds of flowers? 
Does time let hope hide within it hours? 
Or...

I Don’t need  your attention

Now riding pass your house you can't see me but I see you
See now I know what you really wanted you wanted someone to play in your...
